Little Fanny - In memory of Hiroshima

I came across this tombstone and took this photo in the older part of the Mount Royal Cemetary - where rich families were burried. Apparently, during the turn of the century, there was a polio epidemic here, and many children died before the age of 5. There were so many of these 'simple graves' everywhere, but this one was the most disturbing...

I dedicate this photo to all who lost their lives during the bombing of Hiroshima, especially all those children who did not have a chance to grow up.
